I'm actually finding this to be a very common trend, a lot of people seem to be saying that Amnesia is the first horror game they've ever played. This includes myself, I never even had an interest in the genre until this game came along.

I can't help but wonder why, of all games, this one would suck me in the most, and for other people as well; what made Amnesia really pique your interest in the genre? What sets it apart from all those other horror games out there?
